September was a really fruitful month for us by way of bettering Stripo and its ecosystem within the type of numerous supporting instruments. As well as, this month, we began working in direction of an vital side of e mail advertising — accessibility.
So, let’s go into a little bit extra element about all of the achievements.
Interactive module generator has three extra video games now
After we launched our interactive module generator in July, we mentioned that we had huge plans to replace it and it’s best to count on new video games. As we promised, in September, we launched three new video games that may be generated by means of the handy interface of our generator.
- Scratch recreation. On this recreation, you possibly can create a secret message or give the recipient a promo code, which they have to reveal by means of the scratching coloration coating like in lottery tickets.
- Image quiz recreation. Give your subscribers a riddle, and the reply will probably be within the assembled puzzle.
- Wheel of fortune. Give away promo codes and prizes or create video games utilizing the wheel of fortune. Let recipients take a look at their luck by spinning the wheel and seeing what it reveals.
For instance, that is what the completed image quiz recreation seems like.
You possibly can generate all these video games in an intuitive interface, and also you don’t want coding information to create and implement them in your e mail. We won’t wait to see what emails you possibly can construct utilizing these ready-made recreation mechanics.
Two-factor authentication is now reside in Stripo
First, let us take a look at what this two-factor authentication is and why it’s wanted. Two-factor authentication (or 2FA) is a further safety measure used to confirm the identification of people making an attempt to entry an internet account. After coming into their username and password, customers are requested for further data earlier than being granted entry.
Now, in Stripo you’ve got the choice to activate 2FA or Multi-Issue Authentication (MFA) to reinforce the safety of your account. This helps defend your account from numerous safety dangers, together with phishing, brute-force assaults, credential abuse, and related threats based mostly on consumer passwords and accounts.
Now you can select to authenticate by means of devoted two-factor authentication apps comparable to Google Authenticator, Authy, or Duo. As well as, double authentication may be carried out by means of a one-time code, which we’ll ship to you by e mail.
First steps in bettering e mail accessibility inside Stripo
This yr, the Electronic mail Markup Consortium launched an Accessibility Report, which revealed some horrible information: 99.97% of HTML emails examined include accessibility points categorized as “Severe” or “Crucial.” Because of this, we’ve got the truth that solely 0.03% of emails are totally accessible.
What does this imply? Virtually all emails that find yourself in inboxes are poorly or fully unreadable for display readers. Individuals with visible impairments merely can’t discover out what’s in these emails since display readers can’t learn the e-mail out loud for them.
In the intervening time, Stripo is approaching 1 million energetic customers, and it is a large variety of emails created by means of our editor. We need to enhance these horrible statistics on our personal in order that any display reader can learn all emails created in Stripo with out issues.
Proper now, our programmers are remodeling and bettering the emails code rolled out of the editor in order that there are not any errors on the code stage that might intrude with display readers.
As well as, the product staff is engaged on “Accessibility precheck” performance. The principle concept is that Stripo will examine emails for compliance with accessibility requirements (e mail code, coloration distinction, and so on.). We’ll point out which e mail components cut back accessibility and advocate how greatest to repair them utilizing our e mail preview function.
The code replace will probably be launched within the coming weeks, whereas the “Accessibility precheck” will probably be launched later.
